FOH Barista
Posted 1 day 3 hours ago by Rosslyn Queen Victoria Street
Founded in 2018, Rosslyn is a collection of award winning specialty coffee shops across the City of London. We set out to create something special: All the high standards and attention to detail of the great Australian café, combined with all the warmth and hospitality of the great Irish pub! All sites are now amongst the busiest in the world and bring together industry leaders from various fields to represent their work under one roof.
At Rosslyn, we believe that what we do matters. We're a hospitality business built around contributing to everyone we come into contact with - our guests, our team, and our community. We understand that success means more when it's shared, and that when you invest in the people around you, it comes back around.
That's why we hire for character first. Skills can be taught - but empathy, optimism, and genuine care for the person in front of you? Those come from within. At the end of it all, what we do is simple: we are nice to people, and we make great coffee.

Our commitment to work life balance means evenings off, a 40 hour workweek, and shifts under 10 hours.
